| This is a tutorial on using Bryce masks in Paint Shop Pro in order to modify certain sections of your rendered Bryce image without affecting other parts. | |
| Okay, here's the original image. I need to kick up some sand under the octopus and texturize the octopus. |
|
| In order to do this, I need two masks.
One for the octopus only ... |
 |
| and one for the octopus, plants, and shells (to kick
up the sand).
Looking back, I should have also rendered a mask for the in front plants. |
 |
| To render a mask in Bryce, select the object you want to make the mask of. If you know how render a mask in Bryce, skip to the next page. |
 Click on the image for a larger version. |
| Next, pull down the menu from the bottom arrow (circled) and select Mask Render. |
 |
| Next, choose File -> Render to Disk. |
 |
| When rendering an image that I'll be doing post-processing on, I prefer to render it at 2048 x whatever and at 300 dpi. |
 |
| Name your file, save as a .bmp or a .tif file. |
 |
| And it renders to disk. Repeat for each mask needed. |
 |
| Okay, on to Creating Masks in PSP | |
